For those who haven’t heard of them, weeknotes are exactly what they sound like – a roundup of the week. They’re a moderately trendy thing for the better class of design studio to engage in – a listing of various projects, of progress made and activities accomplished.
I thought I’d try and adapt them for my own use this year. I’m going to aim to publish them on a Friday night/Saturday morning, with details of what I’ve been up to. I’m sure the format will evolve a bit over the year, but for now, I’m just going to ramble a bit.
The year’s starting at a reasonable pace, I guess. Out socialising with Andrew and Marysia on Saturday, which was lovely, a quiet day on Sunday, and back to work on Monday. Work this week has been a mix of sweeping up those last few things that didn’t get done at a the tail end of last year, a few small jobs that were scheduled for this week, and a bit of thinking about new projects that we’re hoping to be working on in the early part of the year. I’m a bit constrained by what I can say about work on this blog, obviously, so I’ll probably only note work here in passing, or when it’s particularly relevant and something big or interesting has happened.
The major theme for this week has been Testament prep – getting things ready, fielding questions from players, and so on. The new LARP I’m running starts on Sunday, and I’ve still not got all the associated web gubbins built, but I’ve made solid progress tonight, and will spend tomorrow afternoon on it, and it should be ready by about Tuesday, which is about when I would want to send out usernames and passwords. Fingers crossed.
I’ve also spent a bit of time on blog-related matters. I’ve got a decent length post here at the final edits stage, and I finally bought the Basic Maths theme, for use on ala.sda.ir, I started work on personal project that I’ll tell you all about later in the year, and I’m thinking about simply moving all my crap onto a single blog, rather than keeping it scattered across half a dozen blogs and LJ, but I need to actually make some plans about how I’d do that, which domain I’d use, and so on and so forth. Next job on that front is to ressurect my photography portfolio website – the domain lapsed, and it just needs bringing back on a new domain, and to move the primary venue for my photoblog off LJ, and onto a domain of its own.
Other useful metrics, that I may or may not track though the year:
Gym vists: 0. Utter Fail. Must do better.
Album of the week (according to last.fm, based on most number of listens): Zoe Keating – One Cello X 16: Natoma
Number of links bookmarked on delicious: 7
